The Washington Post Weighs In On Lane-Splitting

Washington D.C. is the only place in the United States, outside of California, where lane-splitting has not been deemed illegal, although the practice is much less common. The Washington Post's Fredrick Kunkle weighs in with some thoughts on how lane-splitting would benefit the city if it were utilized more by decreasing congestion, and includes some facts on it's safety.

Not only is the article well thought out, interesting, and well written—but it's also filled with interesting comments. Some are from California riders who lane-split frequently, some from riders in other parts of the country who don't split and don't want to, and even more are from D.C. riders who discuss their use of the practice. Oh, and there are some real crazy ones too. Here are five of my favorites.
